Save yourself nanoseconds using GMail with the GBoard

Because your time is as precious as chocolate-dipped doubloons and you simply have to account for every moment of it, you need a physical keyboard to use the shortcuts on your GMail account. Imagine the tenths of a second you'll save instead of reaching for the mouse.

All that functionality that takes forever - stuff like opening search, archiving and forwarding mails - now you can do it even quicker, fill up another USB port and clutter your desk space with even more pointless crapola:

Looks pretty underspec'd to me. If they'd put a few more keys on it they could have the entire alphabet on there. That would save you having to use your keyboard to type. They could also put a little screen at the top so you could see what your typing without having to look at your monitor.

To be fair this is a great idea for people with disabilities the color coordinated keys will help people with sight issues and will make e-mailing a little easier for people who find it difficult to see the screen properly, to dismiss this as crap is shortsighted in my view.
